Thanks for replying. I have been researching Cahill in Newark for years as have several others I keep contact with. Lilly Hammer Jack Cipperano, and Ruth ?. (Not sure about the above spellings) Anyway, what we are searching is the origin of our Cahill family in Ireland. Our families go back to 1850 in Newark, records are poor as to the old country. I have establish a lot of Cahill's from Cavan that were in Newark at the turn of the century 1900-1930. I also found a few that were married late 1800s. I have yet to establish a connection to the Cavan these Cahill's as relatives to us. (you may be an important key) I and others have established through our families records and personal memory connections to great aunts and uncles, but never did establish a connection to Ireland. How did your family get to Newark? Via established relatives or a job change or straight from Ireland? The funny part of all this is my mother is a Reilly and her family is from Cavan and I visit them often. My connection to Cahill is my grandmother on my fathers side, She was Ellen or Nellie Cahill from Down- neck Newark. I will be off the computer for a few days, but please respond if you think I can help you or you can help me.
